Rock Salt - Chef 101

Rock Salt is one of the signature restaurants at Cinnamon Bey which provides customers the opportunity to prepare their own meals the way like it. It truly is a wonderful experience and quite an unforgettable one. ( Don’t worry, it doesn’t involve long hours in the kitchen). They provide you a personalised dish or you can also choose one of their signature dishes off the menu which you can then cook on the Hot Stones provided by the restaurant. You are also entitled to your very own “Toque Blanche” and an apron, which elevates your imagination and completes your chef experience.

We tried out their Seafood with Passion Fruit Salsa which consisted of prawns, salmon, cuttlefish and also a sushi roll complemented with a passion fruit and tomato salad which I thought was amazing. There was a lovely zing that the passion fruit gave and the seafood was cooked well and the two complemented each other quite well. However, the highlight came when we got the opportunity to be the chef. We got a platter of raw chicken, prawns, seer fish and salmon which we had to fry on our hot stones. We got salt, pepper and pink salt to season it with and also fresh asparagus, tomatoes, button mushrooms and also rice to go along with the meats. It truly is a thrilling and exciting journey and certainly not an experience you get everywhere . Don’t worry too much, even if you’re not that great a cook, the chef is always around to help and make your dinner as palatable as possible. All in all, it’s a great restaurant to Indulge in a fusion of flavours from around the world presented with a unique twist - prepared with the best of ingredients to be seared on hot stones.these were simply three of the eight restaurants available at Cinnamon Bey Beruwala and each one is an experience in itself. This is most definitely the place to go if you are looking to treat yourself to a variety of Sri Lankan or international cuisine, and to put it in simple terms, it is a one stop shop to satisfy all your culinary needs.
